Ecology, farming, local gastronomy, traditional customs, fresh air, simplicity, serenity and warm hospitality.
Joining in farm life, boat fishing, handcrafting and much more, goes beyond a simple travelling experience. It is a way of life. A return to nature and traditional values, the personal relationship between people, between the sea and the land. A guest that soon becomes a local.
